* PRICK ONK CENT, LIPTON THROWS UP BOTH HANDS ‘Blue and Discouraged. He Says Shamrock II!, Never Had a Ghost of a Chance; He Won't Try to Lift Cup Again.

He says there {s no designer in Great Brit- ain the equal of Nat Herreshoff, and mo skipper who could sail the Herre- ehoff boats as well as Charley Barr. ‘The Irish knight has lost ali hope of winning to-morrow, but will try just as hard, as though he thought he had a ehance.

He was very blue. i Han Worrted and Fretted. * “No one," he said, “has any idea of how I have worried and fretted over this race. No man was more confident of winning anything than I was when I eame over. I didn't bet. I don't be- Ueve in gambling, but 1 would have been willing to bet the Erin or my watch (pulling the timepiece from his pocket) that I would win. It is the greatest disappointment that I have ever had in all my life. What can I do? I have tried my best. [ cannot design a boat; I cannot sall one. I have common gense, and I can see that Reliance is the better boat, If I could design the chal- Yengor and then sail her I might not he @o blue to-day. There is no denying that Iam sad and disvouraged.” Sir Thomas turned to Col. Netll aw though seeking for sympathy. He ‘wiped his eyes, cleaned his glasses, and continued “I have spent months of sleepless nights worrying over the challenger. It has been an awful strain, When the third Shamrock met with that accident off the Hook—the time that she broke her main sheet traveller—I simply col- lapsed. Every moment I have wondered wbat would happen to her. They tell me that I have a beautiful boat. I @on‘t want a beautiful boat. What I ywant is a boat to lift the cup—a Re- Uance.

Hamburg Belle, favorite for the rich Futurity Stakes at Sheepshead to-morrow afternoon, is announced as a doubtful starter in the entries sent out from the track. The flat- footed Hamburg filly has been backed for thousands of dollars, all the big plungers recording wagers on her after her brilliant performance at Saratoga last week. It is believed, however, if the weather moderates and the track is in anything like safe condition, the filly will be started. If she does not go then the Keene entry will be a strong choice. The entries show that afield of nineteen youngsters will be sent to the post. This is the most coveted prize of the year for two-year-olds. It is not only coveted on account of the valie of the stake but because with the winning goes the honor of champton- ship in the two-year-old division, ‘The Futurity this season will be worth about $60,000, and it seems almost sure to fall to the lot of some one of the many millionaires who are represented by one or more horses.

Sam Brown with Broomstick and Audi- ence; Willlam C. Whitney with Mer cury and Leonidas, and James B, Hage gin with Hamburg Bolle and Ormonde's Right, rurining inthe colors of Sydney Paget. All the dreams that these men have had in connection with the Futurity have been based on a fast track and fine weather. | Now that a rainstorm has turned Sheepshead into a mudhole, the complexion of the race has been completely altered, and the whole town Is worrying over the probable changes that will take place. Many a well-worn “dope book" wim weather, put for racing, too fragile for a strong Sir Thomas will make Boston and Chicago att race and then sall for England. os FLAG STORY UNTRUE 1 SAYS SIR THOMAS. (Special to The Evening World.) HIGHLANDS OF NAVESINK, N.

He read thie story and an editorial in a New York newspaper saying he was not a true Irishman and then exclaimed: right down on just’ what Reianoe' bowsprit hit Shamroc si ‘ ‘A fierce storm is howling ite way @long the coast to-day, and the wise men that {t may continue Tor three days, it should be as stron, morrow as the signs now indicate wall hina oft “That's absolutely false!

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—JJust as soon as the news reached Com = \ stantinople that two United States warships were speeding on their way to Beirut to avenge the murder of Vice-Consul Magelssen prompt actios ‘ 4 Bs 4 was taken by the Turkish Government to disavow the crime. Up to 2 o'clock this afternoon the State Department had received. nothing supplementary to the despatch from Minister Leishman whic? announced that the Turkish Minister for Foreign Affairs discredited the report of the assassination. But the despatch of Admiral Cotton witt the cruisers Brooklyn and San Francisco aroused that official to the gravity of the situation, and a hasty message of a more business-like: character was sent late this afternoon. The Foreign Minister answers our State Department that an immediate Investigation will be made and that the Turkish Government will take ali ~ possible steps to find out and punish the gullty. The gunboat Machias, which is the other vessel of Admiral Cotton’ squadron, will join Admiral Cotton at Port Said. The other warships wer ordered to proceed from Genoa at full speed, but they will have to coal Port Said, which will give the Machias a chance to catch up with them ‘They should reach Beirut about Tuesday night. PLANNING A DEMONSTRATION. Acting Secretary of tne Navy Darling and Capt. Cowles, Chief of th” Bureau o? Navigation and brother-in-law of President Roosevelt, were & conference all night at the Navy Department, They kept a force of seg retaries avil clerks at work, bringing maps and hunting up all the techni ca: information the Government has concerning Beirut and Syria. I-wal. evident that they were preparing for a demonstration, Minister Ieishman has cabled the State Department that he called al the Foreign Office again last night and presened the American demands for an immediate investigation of the reported assassination of Vice-Com sul Magelssen at Beirut. Mr. Leishman states that Macedonian conditions are growing com stantly more acute and that the situation in that section is extremely grave. In his cablegran: to Minister Leishman last night regarding the report ot the American Board of Missions that an attempt had been made to burs the Buphrates College buildings at Harpoot, Acting Secretary Loomis im structed him to demand of the Turkish Government that it take imme diate steps for the protection of the lives of all Americans there. ‘ International law permits an offended nation, when it finds it impos sible to secure immediate reparation for a grievous wrong, to inflict pun& ° , live damage, This is usually interpreted to mean that the aggrieved hat | the right to blow a sea port out of existence, and this course has been fok lowed by Great Britain in many Instances, In the absence of definite information concerning the assassination Ces Vice-Consul Magelasen, the President will take no decided action, beyond that already taken in ordering the European Squadron to Beirut! This actios fs viwed now as a precautionary measure. It is the determination of tht United States to support its demands upon Turkey for the punishment oj the murderer or murderers of Mr, Magelssen, but until the circumstances surrounding the murder are known officially and precisely the United States {t ig announced, will not take any drastic action, A demand that protection be afforded officials of the United States for their lives and property will bé made, and the Turkish Government will be held responsible for the assas | simation of Consul Magelssen, whatever may be the circumstances of thi | case. President Roosevelt is concerned over the situation as It has developed to-day, because {t indicates an intolerable condition of affairs in Turkey. He recalls the fact that only recently a Russian Consul was murdered in Turkey: POWERS WILL NOT PROVT/-CT TURKEY, | If the Sultan does not make proper amends or it is deemed necessary to {make an example of Turkey, the powers will not interfere. The measures, es if any are takeu, will be punitive.
